Authorities evacuated parts of Amsterdam's Schiphol airport on Wednesday after workers found an unexploded World War Two bomb, forcing airlines to delay and cancel some flights. And separately, a flight from Malaga was surrounded by Dutch security forces upon landing at Schiphol after a miscommunication between the pilot and Dutch ground control caused a hijack scare.

False alarm about hijacking

"There was never any danger. There was a lack of communication between the pilot and the tower and the airport has activated the security protocol," a spokeswoman for Spanish carrier Vueling said.

The airline's flight from Malaga in Spain to Amsterdam was surrounded by Dutch security forces on landing at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport.
